This is mostly a revert of commit:
baa9be4ffb ("sched/fair: Fix throttle_list starvation with low CFS quota")
The primary use of distribute_running was to determine whether to add
throttled entities to the head or the tail of the throttled list. Now
that we always add to the tail, we can remove this field.
The other use of distribute_running is in the slack_timer, so that we
don't start a distribution while one is already running. However, even
in the event that this race occurs, it is fine to have two distributions
running (especially now that distribute grabs the cfs_b->lock to
determine remaining quota before assigning).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
